| Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma | Drug: Loncastuximab Tesirine Drug: Rituximab | Phase 2 |
The primary objectives of this trial are shown below:
Cohort A: To assess the efficacy of a response-adapted treatment of Lonca-R in unfit participants with previously untreated DLBCL, high-grade B cell lymphoma (HGBCL), or Grade 3b follicular lymphoma (FL).
Cohort B: To assess the tolerability and efficacy of a response-adapted treatment of Lonca-R in frail participants with previously untreated DLBCL, or HGBCL, or Grade 3b FL who are ineligible for standard R-mini-CHOP.
The simplified geriatric assessment (sGA) developed by the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) identifies three distinct categories (fit, unfit, and frail) based on age, activities of daily living (ADL), instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) and the Cumulative Illness Rating Scale for Geriatrics (CIRS-G). Participants will be assigned to Cohort A (unfit) or B (frail) using the sGA.

Experimental: Cohort A : Loncastuximab Tesirine + Rituximab (Lonca-R)
Participants who are unfit (per sGA) will receive Lonca-R for 3 cycles. Participants who achieve a complete response (CR) will receive Lonca-R for 1 additional cycle. Participants who achieve a partial response (PR) will receive Lonca-R for 3 additional cycles. Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab 375 mg/m^2 on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg on Day 2 of Cycle 1. During Cycle 2, Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab* 375 mg/m^2 and loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg on Day 1. For cycles 3 and beyond, Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab 375 mg/m^2 and loncastuximab tesirine 75 µg/kg on Day 1. *subcutaneous rituximab 1400mg/dose may be used during Cycle 2 and beyond |
Drug: Loncastuximab Tesirine
Intravenous (IV) Infusion

Drug: Rituximab Cycle 1 - Intravenous (IV) Infusion. Cycle 2+ - Intravenous (IV) Infusion or Subcutaneous (SC) Administration. |
|
Experimental: Cohort B : Loncastuximab Tesirine + Rituximab (Lonca-R)
Participants who are frail (per sGA) or participants with cardiac comorbidities will receive Lonca-R for 3 cycles. Participants who achieve a CR will receive Lonca-R for 1 additional cycle. Participants who achieve a PR will receive Lonca-R for 3 additional cycles for a total of up to 6 cycles. Only participants enrolled in Cohort B, who achieve stable disease (SD) and deriving clinical benefit per the treating physician, may also receive Lonca-R for an additional 3 cycles. Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab 375 mg/m^2 on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg on Day 2 of Cycle 1. During Cycle 2, Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab* 375 mg/m^2 and loncastuximab tesirine 150 µg/kg on Day 1. For cycles 3 and beyond, Lonca-R will be administered as rituximab 375 mg/m^2 and loncastuximab tesirine 75 µg/kg on Day 1. *subcutaneous rituximab 1400mg/dose may be used during Cycle 2 and beyond |

Clinically significant changes from baseline in safety laboratory variables, vital signs and physical examinations will also be recorded as TEAEs/SAEs.
- Number of Participants with a Clinically Significant Change from Baseline in Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status Score [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 22 weeks ]ECOG performance status will be assessed on a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (fully active) to 5 (dead).

- Number of Participants with Confirmed Positive Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Responses [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ]
- Number of Participants with a Change from Baseline in Patient-reported Outcomes [ Time Frame: Baseline up to 22 weeks ]Includes changes in symptoms, functions and overall health status as measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lymphoma (FACT-Lym). The FACT-Lym is scored from 0-168 where a higher score indicates a worse outcome.
